Piperine inhibits cytokine production by human peripheral blood mononuclear cells.
Piperine, an amide isolated from Piper species (Piperaceae), has been reported to exhibit central nervous system depression, anti-pyretic and anti-inflammatory activity. Immunomodulatory and anti-tumor activity of piperine has been demonstrated in mouse carcinomas. However, there is little information available concerning the effect of piperine on humans. We evaluated the immunopharmacolog...
متن کاملDietary alpha-linolenic acid inhibits proinflammatory cytokine production by peripheral blood mononuclear cells in hypercholesterolemic subjects.
BACKGROUND Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease. We previously reported that a diet high in alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) reduces lipid and inflammatory cardiovascular disease risk factors in hypercholesterolemic subjects. OBJECTIVE The objective was to evaluate the effects of a diet high in ALA on serum proinflammatory cytokine concentrations and cytokine production by cultured per...

Background: Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease. We previously reported that a diet high in -linolenic acid (ALA) reduces lipid and inflammatory cardiovascular disease risk factors in hypercholesterolemic subjects.

متن کاملOptimization of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) cryopreservation
Cryopreservation is the method of choice for long term storage of human PBMCs. This study was designed to compare the different combinations of variables affecting the cryopreservation of PBMCs samples. The viability of PBMCs separated from 2×5 ml peripheral blood samples obtained from 16 healthy adult volunteers, were measured using trypan blue dye exclusion method just before freezing with ...
متن کاملNitric oxide production by human peripheral blood mononuclear cells.
INTRODUCTION There are conflicting data on the ability of human mononuclear cells to produce nitric oxide (NO). We investigated nitric oxide production from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMs) by using a new sensitive fluorescent indicator. MATERIALS AND METHODS PBMs from healthy volunteers were collected, plated in 96-well microplates, and loaded with the fluorescent nitric oxide probe...
